1) Joseph interprets the wine steward & the baker's dream

Once the wine steward & the baker had offended the Pharoah.The Pharoah put them in prison.One night in the prison the wine steward & the baker, each had a dream. When Joseph came to them they were upset as nobod cold explain their dream.
They explained their dreams.In the dream of the wine steward there was a grape wine in front of him with three branches on it. As soon as the leaves came out, the blossoms appeared, and the grapes ripened.He was holding the kings cup.So he took the grapes & squeezed the cup and gave it to him.Joseph said that this meant that the three branches are the three days. In three days the Pharoah would release & pardon him and he would give him his cup as he had been giving when he was a wine steward.

In the baker's dream , the baker was carrying three bread baskets on his head.In the top were all kinds of pasteries for the king, and the birds were eating them. Joseph answered that the three baskets were the three days and in three days the king would release him and have his head cut off! Then he wol hang his body on a pole, and the birds would eat his flesh.

2) Joseph interprets Pharoah's dream

The Pharoah had dreamt that he was standing by the River Nile,
when seven cows, fat & sleek, came up out of the river and began to feed on the grass.Then seven other cows came on the river-bank, and the thin kcows ate up the fat cows. Then the king woke up.He fell asleep again and had another dream. Seven ears of corn, full ripe, were growing on one stalk. Then seven other ears of corn swallowed the full ones. The king woke up & realized that it was a dream.He was worried in the morning & sent for all magicians & wise men of Egypt.He told them his dream but no one could explain it to him.Finally the wine steward suggested that Joseph cold explain his dream as he had also explained the wine steward & the baker's dream.The Pharoah called for Joseph & the Pharoah explained the dream.Joseph explained the dream to Pharoah.He told that both the dreams meant the same.The seven fat cows & seven ears of corn were seven years.The seven thin cows which came up later and the seven thin ears scorched by the deset wind are the seven years of famine.There will be seven years of great plenty in Egypt. After that, there will be seven years of famine, and all the good years will be forgotten, because the famine will ruin the country.The repitation of his dream was that the matter was fixed by God.

3) Daniel's vision
In the dream of Daniel, the winds were blowing from all directions and lashing the surface of the ocean. Four huge beasts came out of the ocean, each one different from others.
The first one looked like a lion, but had wings like an eagle. While he was watching the wings of the lion tore off. The beast was lifted up and made to stand like a man. And then a human mind was given to it.
The second beast looke like a bear standing on its hind legs. It was holding three ribs between its teeth and a voice said to it," Go on, eat much meat as you can".
Another beast appeared. It was powerful, horrible, terrible flying.
With its huge iron teeth it crushed its victims and then it trampled on them. While Daniel in the dream was staring at the horns, he saw a little horn coming up among the others. It tore out three of the horns ther were already there. This horn was human eyes and a mouth that was boasting proudly.

4) Vision of One who has been living for ever
While Daniel was looking, the thrones were put in order. One who had been living for ever sat down on one of the thrones.his clothes were white as snow.His throne mounted on fiery wheels, wwas blazing with fire and a stream of fire was pouring.Millions of people stood before him.The fourth beast was killed and its body was thrown in flames and detroyed.The other beast had their power taken away, but the were permitted to go on living for a limited time.During the night in the vision Daniel saw what looked like a human being was approaching him, surrounded with clouds and went to the one who had been living forever and was presented with authority, power, so that people of all races, language would serve him.His authority last forever and his kingdom has no end.
In the bible later the angel explains the dream to Daniel.

No animal could stop him or escape his power.He did what he pleased and grew arrogant.
While he was wondering what htis meant, a goat came rushing out to the west, moving so fast that his feet did not touch the ground.He had one prominent horn between his eyes.He came towards the ram, which had been standing beside the river, he came with force and attacked the ram.He was so angry that he smashed and broke his two horns.The ram had no strength and was trampled and no one coule save him. The goat grew more arrogant, but at the height of its power his horn was broken.In its place four prominent horns came up, each pointing in different directions.Out of one of these horns grew a little horn, whose power extended towards the south and in the east and towards the Promised land.It grew strong enough to attack the army of heaven and stars themselves, and it threw some of them to the ground and trampled on them.It defied the Prince of heavenly army and stopped sacrifice offerd to him and desecrated the Temple.The horn was succesful in everything it did.People sinned.Then he heard one angel asking when will these things continue and the other angel answered that it will continue for 1,150 days during which the evening and morning sacrifice will not be offered.Then the temple will be restored.

Answer 6

i think it was just joseph the dreamer.

Joseph is one of the best-known figures in the Hebrew Bible, famous for his coat of many colours and his God-given ability to interpret dreams. Owing to jealousy from his brothers, he was sold as a slave, eventually working under the Egyptian Potiphar, but was later freed, and became the chief adviser (vizier) to the Egyptian Pharaoh around 1402 BC.

Joseph was the firstborn son of Jacob's most-loved wife Rachel, and Jacob made no secret of favoring him. The motif of preferential parental treatment continues (remember, Isaac loved Esau, but Rebekah loved Jacob) and continues to be the source of family discontent.

Joseph rejected the attempts of Potiphar's wife to seduce him, she accused Joseph of attempted rape, and he was cast into the state prison. two servants of Pharaoh's household who were in jail with Joseph and asked him to interpret their dreams. Joseph correctly predicted the future based on their dreams: one would be reinstated in his post while the other would be executed. Joseph urged the first, a royal cupbearer, to get him out of prison once he was reinstated, but the cupbearer forgot about him and left him in prison for two more years.

Joseph predicted seven years of plenty to be followed by seven years of famine and advised the Pharaoh to appoint someone to store up surplus grain. Pharaoh was pleased with Joseph's interpretation and advice, and gave him authority over all the land of Egypt
